We consider a wireless multi-hop network and design an algorithm for jointly optimal scheduling of packet transmissions and network coding. We consider network coding across differ...
We present a method for utilizing soft information in decoding of variable length codes (VLCs). When compared with traditional VLC decoding, which is performed using "hard&quo...
This paper proposes a hybrid hard/soft decode-and-forward (DF) relaying protocol with distributed turbo code (DTC), based on error detection in cooperative communications. In order...
We study the average-case hardness of the class NP against deterministic polynomial time algorithms. We prove that there exists some constant ? > 0 such that if there is some l...
The minimum distance is one of the most important combinatorial characterizations of a code. The maximum likelihood decoding problem is one of the most important algorithmic proble...
